Abstract

Ce-doped Colquiriite- and Scheelite-type fluoride single crystals were grown by the Czochralski technique. The formation of inclusions and cracks accompanying the crystal growth was investigated. The effective distribution coefficients of Ce³⁺ in LiCaAlF₆, LiSrAlF₆, LiYF₄ and LiLuF₄ were determined to be 0.031, 0.028, 0.116 and 0.054, respectively. Ultraviolet pulse generations with an output energy of 60 and 27 mJ were obtained from Ce:LiCaAlF₆ and Ce:LiLuF₄ lasers.
